- MVMildred· September 28th, 2025Jim was our very knowledgeable, very funny guide who had a great knowledge of Scottish history and made it a fun time along the way. His music selection provided a good variety of music as well moved along. The sites visited were incredibly interesting if you are into history at all! I was in awe of each one! You have to know that on this trip, you have a lot of time spent in the van driving to far places on many days. I think it would have been better to have this trip be a 6 day trip.Show more

Andrea· September 24th, 2025Rabbie's is a small bus tour, we only had 11 people on our tour. Lots of driving through very scenic locations. I loved visiting the Highlands of Scotland and it was definitely a bucketlist trip. I will go back because I enjoyed this tour so much. The accomodations were all very suitable and relaxing with very friendly hosts especially on the island of Orkney.Show moreTrip date: August 2025- Deb· September 18th, 2025The tour was well worth taking. The sights were incredible, especially on the Orkney IslandsShow moreTrip date: August 2025
- GMGregory· September 15th, 2025We had a great trip to the Orkneys with Catti on the 5 day adventure. She was very friendly and knowledgable about the islands and the North Scotland history, which was very interesting. She shared all of her stories and showed us all of the prominent locations.Show moreTrip date: August 2025

- CTCatriona· July 28th, 2025The tour to the Orkneys involved substantial road mileage. The Orkneys themselves were fascinating. Unfortunately, my accommodation there was sub-standard. Elsewhere the accommodation was fine. Transport: the bus was relatively comfortable but the AC was substandard. Our guide was highly knowledgeable and interesting.Show moreTrip date: July 2025
- GVGabriele· July 7th, 2025Automatic translation available in English. View in EnglishVery pleasantly surprised by the modern minibuses. We had an above-average driver in Paul, who was also good with information (we were mostly able to understand him) and knew how not to overwhelm us with it but to liven up the whole thing with music that adapted to the landscape or text. He was flexible, helpful and friendly and an enrichment for the trip. Organization very good. Hotels satisfactory and the route extremely beautiful. 2nd trip Organization, hotel and route good. Willi, the driver was nice, but spoke far too quickly and too much (at least during the trip) so that we had little of it.Show moreTrip date: July 2025

Asked on November 27th, 2024Does this tour include any castles? Not simply a drive by but a walk through?
- Rabbie's ToursOperator•Written November 2024
There are no castle tours as part of the official itinerary on this tour. You will likely see many as you are driving about the country but there are no visits scheduled. That being said, our tours are very flexible so if there is demand from passengers on board the bus to visit a castle, then this could possibly be arranged. If you speak to your driver-guide while on tour they can advise you.

Asked on November 20th, 2024I would like to book a tour of Scotland starting in Edinburgh on 17-19 of July 2025. I will be in North Berwick the week before for a golfing holiday. My question is: can I deposit my golfbag somewhere for the period of the tour booked with you because I gather it will not be within the (understandable) luggage restrictions.
- Rabbie's ToursOperator•Written November 2024
There are several places where you can store luggage.
